Tips
Type enough characters to identify the action, category, or parameter name uniquely. For
parameter values, type the entire value. For example, you can shorten:
set network port 1 state static ipaddr 122.3.10.1 mask 255.255.0.0
to
se net po 1 st static ip 122.3.10.1 ma 255.255.0.0
Use the Tab key to automatically complete action, category, or parameter names. Type a
partial name and press
Tab
either to complete the name if only one is possible, or to display
the possible names if more than one is possible. Following a space after the preceding name,
Tab displays all possible names.
Should you make a mistake while typing, backspace by pressing the Backspace key and/or
the Delete key, depending on how you accessed the interface. Both keys work if you use
VT100 emulation in your terminal access program when connecting to the console port. Use
the left and right arrow keys to move within a command.
Use the up and down arrows to scroll through previously entered commands. If desired, select
one and edit it. You can scroll through up to 100 previous commands entered in the session.
To clear an IP address, type 0.0.0.0, or to clear a non-IP address value, type
CLEAR
.
When the number of lines displayed by a command exceeds the size of the window (the
default is 25), the command output is halted until the user is ready to continue. To display the
next line, press
Enter
, and to display the page, press the space bar. You can override the
number of lines (or disable the feature altogether) with the
set cli
command.
